Zoë (ζωή) means life in Greek. The name reflects the philosophy behind this practice, supporting your body to heal, restore balance, and live with strength, energy and vitality.

Zoë by Renee is a Melbourne-based naturopathic practice dedicated to helping you restore balance, rebuild resilience, and support long-term vitality, especially if you’ve felt there must be more than conventional medicine alone.

Whether you’re navigating a complex chronic condition, managing a recent diagnosis, or looking to optimise your long-term health, Renee provides personalised care grounded in empathy, clinical insight, and evidence-informed natural medicine.

Led by Renee Zairis (BHSc Naturopathy), a naturopath specialising in integrative cancer care and complex chronic illness, including multiple sclerosis, Renee combines traditional naturopathic principles with modern, research-backed strategies. Care is tailored to support immune, hormonal, digestive, neurological, oncological and energy-related health concerns, with a focus on helping your body function at its best.

Meet Renee

Hi, I'm Renee, a passionate naturopath, researcher, and Mediterranean/Paleolithic food-lover with a deep belief in the body’s natural healing intelligence. Fifteen years ago, I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and through medicinal foods, natural medicines, and the latest cutting-edge biohacking practices, my symptoms progressively resolved, and I’ve spent the last decade living with vitality, resilience, and a deep sense of purpose and wellbeing. Having walked a path of chronic disease personally, my own healing journey fuels my belief in the body’s innate ability to restore itself, even when dealt with the most chronic health condition, when given the right environment, tools, and support. I support all health concerns and disease prevention.

Some of my clinical focus includes:

  • Multiple sclerosis, Cancer, All Autoimmune Conditions (i.e. lupus, thyroid disorders), Digestive Conditions, Kidney Insufficiency, Skin Conditions, and Hormonal Dysregulations

  • Root-cause investigation using clinical examination, pathology and functional testing

  • Nutrition, herbs, minerals, amino-acids and lifestyle strategies that stimulate the body's healing intelligence

  • Biohacking tools like cold immersion, sauna, fasting, breathwork and more

Whether you're seeking to optimise your health, prevent illness, or navigate a chronic condition with holistic, evidence-informed support, I would love to to partner with you in uncovering the root cause and creating a path toward vibrant, lasting wellness.

I combine the long standing principles of traditional naturopathy with the best of modern research and my unique empirical evidence. My care is always individualised and holistic with compassion because no two bodies, stories, or healing paths are ever the same.

I hold a Bachelor of Health Science Degree in Naturopathy and am a registered member of the Australian Natural Therapists Association. My expertise includes applying dietary principles such as the Wahls Protocol in the support of multiple sclerosis, drawing from both clinical application and personal experience. I have also completed an Integrative Oncology Mentorship through Prosper, a program founded on over two decades of experience in supporting individuals and their carers throughout the cancer journey.
